Every donation to our charity shop is so much more than a pre-loved item. It’s a gift of support to an unpaid carer who may be facing each day with little time or energy for themselves.
The money raised helps us provide vital advice and information, and practical and emotional support to people who give so much to those they care for.
Your kindness can help a carer feel less alone and remind them that they are valued and cared for too.
Thank you for giving your unwanted items a new life and helping us make a real difference to carers in our community.
Items can be dropped off at:
- The Charity Shop at 61 High Street, King’s Lynn (Monday-Friday, 9am-4pm)
- Our St Ives office (Mondays and Wednesdays, 9am-4pm)
- Our Swaffham office (Wednesdays, 9am-12pm)
Our shop is conveniently located next to Marks & Spencer and near the Tuesday Market car park. We also have parking available at both of our offices.
